Stays in Quimper

Mercure Quimper Kerlic has an indoor swimming pool, which I value in Brittany because it works whatever the weather does. Family rooms come with garden or city views, air conditioning and private bathrooms. Parents get a spa with a sauna and a fitness centre, there is a sun terrace, and the modern restaurant serves French and local cuisine with dietary options. Breakfast includes local specialities. Guests rate it 9.2, though from only 15 reviews.

When nobody wants to cook, the traditional French restaurant and coffee shop are on site. Free private parking makes trips along the Finistère coast easy.
